Get Paid More: Become a Salary Negotiation Pro with These Guidelines – Brandon Bramley | E209
Manage episode 424192341 series 3252769
Lead Negotiator, Brandon Bramley, addresses common concerns that arise during this critical recruitment stage. Brandon and Jonaed dispel typical myths about job offer negotiation, discuss the importance of leverage, and provide insights on when and how to negotiate. They stress the importance of research, preparation, and professionalism during such discussions. They also highlight the potential for substantial increases in total compensation and the need to showcase value and advocate for oneself.
Key Points Discussed
- Employers are often willing to negotiate job offers, so it's important to advocate for yourself and not be afraid to ask for more.
- Leverage in negotiations comes from the fact that companies have invested time and resources in the hiring process and want to secure their chosen candidate.
- Having another offer can provide internal leverage and confidence, but it's not always necessary for successful negotiation.
- Negotiating salary is a professional conversation, not a confrontational bartering technique. It should be approached with research, data, and a reasonable request.
- Job titles and degree requirements should not limit negotiation potential. It's important to focus on the value and skills you bring to the table.
- Successful negotiation can lead to significant increases in total compensation and career advancement.
